Attn Salespeople: Evolve or Die

If you agree that 70% of the buying process occurs ahead of a salesperson’s involvement, then you’d also agree that the role of the outside salesperson is evolving. This Fast Company Article, “Death Of The Salespeople?” offers an insightful view on the changing role of salespeople.

The high points:

+Your prospects have done the research and do not want or need a sales pitch
+Salespeople need to take on the role of consultant and educator
